Wandering Word Thoughts: Don't slonk!
Try not to salivate while you suaviate (i.e., when you kiss someone).

You won't be able to maintain your froideur (coolness or reserve) if you eat too much sriracha (a pungent sauce of hot peppers pureed with sugar, salt, garlic, and vinegar, most often used as a condiment).
~~~
Don't slonk (swallow greedily) if you don't want to jirble (spill [a liquid] by shaking or unsteady moving)!
~~~
Try to wrap your head around this: The pope wears a "small gourd" (a zucchetto) on his bean.
~~~
Depending on how the food tastes, degust (tasting carefully) may lead to disgust.
